Candidates article

Now that we know which Representation Order the next election will use, it may be time for a candidates article. The PPC and Conservatives have both nominated dozens of candidates already in ridings that will carry over. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 03:36, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Candidates_of_the_45th_Canadian_federal_election can you access this link? I made a draft already of the candidates page CJJ400 (talk) 14:11, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Feel free to update it and edit it as you want, I made it about halfway on the new ridings and riding names, but did not upload candidates yet. (annoyingly, the page was rejected with the reason that "there are no current candidates" when there are currently dozens. CJJ400 (talk) 14:14, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Thanks. I won't make any guarantees about participation. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 16:10, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Candidates by riding

Since somebody's added it twice...

There's a draft article for that info that's been declared by administrators, repeatedly, as WP:TOOSOON: Draft:Candidates of the 45th Canadian federal election.

A list of candidates by riding doesn't belong in the main election article, ever; the article's long enough without 343 table rows plus numerous region headings. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 15:03, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Agreed. When it is time, the list of candidates should be a sub-article, linked from this article. But likely not until about six months before the election. Maybe even closer than that.--Darryl Kerrigan (talk) 21:39, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Bringing photos in line with each leader's page.

Seems reasonable to me, but I'd rather we stick to the policy of getting consensus among the editors before changing leader photos. Trudeau and May are different but the other four match their articles. A bit of cropping would be necessary to match general face size.

Bernier's photo could also do with some cropping to bring his face size in line with the others. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 23:11, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Update about the election.

So, CBC news on Sep 15, 2024, CBC News has there can be a chance to trigger a "Carbon Tax"/early election as soon as Fall 2024, because of 2 things, the Conservatives are calling on the other parties to do a "confidence" vote, and most importantly, "The end of the Liberal-NDP governance agreement makes an early election more likely but not inevitable." (From CBC News, Sep 15) Here's more information in this: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/what-has-to-happen-to-trigger-early-election-1.7321843 JustHistoryLiam (talk) 14:53, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

The Bloc already announced they won't support a non-confidence motion. I don't know whether such motions go on the page when they're unsuccessful. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 16:50, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
